Privacy and Email Providers
Hi Ali,
You can bet your life and you\’ll not lose it!
For instance, I have never read any of those online T&Cs ever. There\’s a
lady called Mary Jo Foley who reads all the words. I only have to read what
she says, then decide whether to click Yes or forget about the online
service.
